tools/perf/build: Exclude MAKEFLAGS from nested invocation

In case the user specifies MAKEFLAGS as an environment variable,
or uses 'make -jN' explicitly, the options can conflict and result in:

    BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
    make[1]: warning: -jN forced in submake: disabling jobserver mode.
    GEN common-cmds.h
    make[1]: *** write jobserver: Bad file descriptor.  Stop.

Make sure we invoke the main makefile in a pristine state.

Users who want to do something non-standard can use the:

  make -f Makefile.perf

method to invoke the makefile.
